Acquired in a trade. Canned March 12th, 2012. Put it right in the fridge and poured into a Hill Farmstead Glass
A - SRM of 8. Golden orange appearance, some cloudiness on the pour that looked pretty resinous. Slightly off-white head of 2 fingers that subsided slowly leaving behind a super sticky lacing on every corner of the glass.
S - Gigantic citrus notes. A hint of resin and a minor bit of pine but very little.Nice big hop characteristics followed by some herbs.
T - Spicy Vanilla is what I get first. Peppered Vanilla? Not too sure. Backbone of pine, grass and tangerines. Lemon zest and some basil.
M - Medium body, 80% carbonation on the mouth swish. Lingering orange peel taste
O - Delicious. It’s a solid IPA with extra points for being canned. Would be a great fishing companion.

Can from Bine & Vine. Pours light golden amber with a transient fizzy white head. Aromas of warm caramel and floral/citrus (or maybe floral/resin). About med body. Moderate carb. Flavor is a little papery, a little peppery, a little malty, and floral, maybe with citrus. It’s certainly bitter, but it reminds a bit of the old Beeman’s gum. Spicy/peppery. Finishes with bitter and flavor, but somehow it lacks substance. I putting this down as a great session beer, assuming the session doesn’t last too long.

Can @ home. Clear, dark orange appearance with a big, off white head. A little spicy, toasted citrus fruity, floral hoppy, toasty malty aroma. Toasty, somewhat bready malty, earthy, spicy hoppy flavor. Pretty good but I probably should have drank this fresher.
